IMPORTANT FOOD STORAGE AND SAFETY INFORMATION This vacuum sealer will change the way you purchase and store foods. Once you are accustomed to vacuum packing, it will become an indispensable part of your food preparation. When preparing and vacuum-packing foods using your vacuum sealer, there are certain procedures that must be followed to ensure food quality and safety.
13. Make sure to properly clean your hands, all utensils and surfaces used to prepare and pack foods. 14. Once you've packed perishable foods, refrigerate or freeze them immediately. 15. Vacuum packing will increase the shelf life of dry foods. Foods that have high fat content develop rancidity due to oxygen and warm temperatures.
